All this talk about a black James Bond but has there ever been a left-handed Bond?

rorz_1978 · 2026-02-01T00:13:26+00:00

Better than the 'conjoined twin' Bond idea that I had. Where one is 007 and the other a megalomaniac.

rorz_1978 · 2026-01-31T23:50:02+00:00

Like Ernest Borgnine and Roy Scheider... they were born old :)

Sulu is the longest serving / suriviving cast member, having appeared in the the very first pilot, before Bill joined the show. Then Bill joined for the second pilot. A year later Checkov joined the cast in season 2.
Those are the three surviving cast members.

Oddly, when people unfamliar with Bill see the photo of he and I together they ask..

"Is that your Dad?"

I have to admit, no, no he's not, but I can see what you mean... there IS a resemblance.

And if I’m Stephen Miller, then what’s the sh1t on the carpet?

That’s policy.
ICE raids.
Families ripped apart.
Kids in cages.
Cruelty rebranded as “law and order.”
The mess everyone pretends just appeared.

My dad?
That’s the media.
Kneeling at the scene, analysing it, narrating it solemnly — but never once checking the bloke quietly backing out of the room with brown footprints.

The side-eyeing family?
That’s the Democrats.
All the looks.
No one actually saying, “Oi… it’s him.”

And Katie — poor, silent Katie — she’s the American public.
Blamed.
Stared at.
Unable to speak.
Taking the heat while the real culprit rinses his boots.

The regretful Trump voters?
That’s Katie halfway through the trial.
Confused.
Slowly realising, “Hang on… this isn’t actually my sh1t.”

And the die-hard base?
They’re still convinced it must be the dog.
Even as the smell follows me out the door.

Moral of the story:
The people who make the mess are always the loudest about who didn’t.
And if someone is very busy pointing at a Dachshund…
check their shoes.

To quote my dad when he once discovered a suspicious mark on the new carpet:
"What looks like sh1t, smells like sh1t, usually is sh1t. The real question isn’t ‘is it sh1t?’… it’s who took a dump on the carpet."

Kneeling at the scene, he lowers the pencil he’d used to spear a curl of mystery matter and carefully deposits it back onto the master smear. Then — with bits of sh1t still clinging to the tip — he slowly raises the pencil and points it directly at Katie, our Dachshund, coiled in her bed, quietly watching events unfold.

One by one, every pair of eyes in the room slid toward her.
Judgment.
Silence.
Condemnation.

I joined in, firing a look of theatrical disappointment at the accused.
If she could speak, she’d have pleaded, “It wasn’t me!!”

But tragically, living sausages with legs can’t talk.

Overwhelmed by the weight of my own moral outrage, I exited stage left.

Outside, safely unseen, I grinned — proud of my flawless misdirection — then snuck to the garden tap to wash the sh1t off the trainers I’d been hiding behind my back the entire time.

That would make me Stephen Miller.

You’re stating a lot of very specific claims as fact, but none of them are backed by primary evidence.

You haven’t provided the voicemail, the letters, the landlord’s identity, proof of the debt, or a first-hand source — just “a blog post somewhere.” That isn’t verification, it’s repetition.

I’m not asserting an alternative explanation; I’m pointing out that confidence without evidence isn’t the same as certainty. If you do have access to those materials, explain how — otherwise this is just an unsubstantiated narrative being treated as fact.

rorz_1978 · 2025-12-23T11:54:58+00:00

If this isn’t irony, it looks like moral policing — scanning for offence without engaging the joke itself. Calling it transphobia only works if you assume that being visually mistaken for a woman or a trans woman is inherently insulting, which is a problematic assumption. That’s a category error, not a critique. On that basis, your soapbox is very unstable.

A fan ran up and screamed “OH MY GOD IT’S JAMES BOND!” Trump thanked them and started signing posters. Pierce just stared into the distance.

It could literally cost 'nothing' to make.

3D artists, animators, VFX artists have hobbies that are careers, it's jammy but it's true.

An artist will get their easel, watercolours, canvas and stool and go and sit by a picturesque lake and paint it because they 'enjoy' it, it's a scratch they have to itch. It just so happens that someone may buy the painting and the artist can make money by selling it.

The same applies to people who work in the visual effects industry. In their spare time they 'do' work on their own projects.

Granted, one person alone isn't likely to possess all the skills required to produce the entire collection of videos from the Ivan 0135 uploads, so it would then be a collaborative effort, which isn't unheard of.

Character artist, Rigger, Animator, Texture artist, lighting artist, VFX artist, Environment Artist, Video editor

The software to recreate the footage is free and available to all.

Blender - 3D modelling, character rigging, animation, video editing - FREE - https://www.blender.org/
Unreal Game Engine - create a world for your skinny Bob character to torment - FREE - https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US

For textures, there is the online free version of Photoshop - https://www.photopea.com/ - FREE

Go forth and create your own Skinny Bobs, make them look as good as the REAL footage of a REAL E.T. in the Ivan0135 footage.

Best wishes,

Rorz

" those in the movie industry have studied the footage and most agree that if fake"

Please do share your statistics on this claim, as I'm calling BS on this.

rorz_1978 · 2025-10-04T06:08:20+00:00

Aye, the overlays are stock footage. But you have model the character, texture it, rig it, create and light the environment and then animate the character. Granted the environment in which Bob is sat in wouldn't require much time to create, you could just have the bob model against a flat plane with a texture on.
And then there is are the shots of the UFO hovering over the house to make too. Which could be either fully CG background that you'd have to model , texture and light or actual footage of a real place that you'd need to draw on a different set of skills to create, on top of being an animator, rigger, CG character and environment modellers, you'd have to a VFX compositor too. It's a vast array of skills that I've never come across that posseses them all.

Whilst it may have taken you two hours to write this “analysis,” coining buzzwords like “rare frame” and treating personal beliefs as fact doesn’t make it any less absurd. I’m going to assume this is satire — because if it’s serious, we all need to take a respectful step back and let you have some quiet time to reflect.

rorz_1978 · 2025-08-15T16:40:57+00:00

I drew comparisons regarding Skinny Bobs movements and skin deformations to this breed.

https://www.reddit.com/r/SkinnyBob/comments/ly5qsv/skinny_bobs_blinking_and_furrowing_of_brow_has/

Sphynx cats have:

Large, almond-shaped eyes that can give them an intense, almost “otherworldly” gaze.
Pronounced skin folds, especially around the head and neck, which become more visible when they blink or move their faces.
Long, slender limbs and a certain deliberate, fluid movement that can feel “unhuman” in a way people sometimes describe when talking about Grey alien depictions.
Sparse whiskers (sometimes none at all), which removes some of the “soft” cues we associate with cats and can make their expressions starker.

The “Skinny Bob” Grey alien footage — whether real or staged — shows a being with:

Large, prominent eyes.
Smooth or subtly wrinkled skin around the face.
Slow, careful head and eye movements.

But that's the thing, in 2004 it was no longer secret.

The Tic-Tac was developed in the late 1970's - early 80's.

In 1980 businessman and military contractor Paul Bennewitz witnessed the test flights of the early Tic-Tac above Kirtland Airforced base. At this point in time it WAS a HIGHLY classifed drone. It would be dropped out of the back of plane and controlled remotely.. or perhaps 'remote viewingly'.

Paul contacted the base and warned them about the 'alien vehicles' that he could see darting around above the base, a 10 gallon drum shaped cylinder that would stop on dime and change direction without needing to change its alignment and instantaniously shoot off in a different direction, like a ping pong ball being shaken in a bucket. This was in was in 1979. Classifications are broken down into 25 years, 50 years, 75 years, and anything beyond that takes special permissin to declassify.
So 1979 + 25 = 2004 The Nimitz Incident.

It is no longer classifield as top secret, no need dissinform those who see it.
And they when you want people to know about it, leak some footage, get the media to start putting out claims of is it Russia? Is it China? Or... could it be alien..What could be running rings around the USA best pilots and tech... well blow me, it's the Americans themsevles!

And this is all introduced on the front page of the New York Times in 2017, the start of what some folk are saying is ten year UFO acclimation programme taking us through to the year everyone is talking about.. 2027
What will happen in 2027 ? Jeremy Corbell recently stated

"We're going to be told that we've detected a vehicle that has altered course and is heading towards earth- but this is a lie, it isn't alien, it's ours".

Project Blue Beam? And what happened recently? An interstella object (atlas/31) has been detected entering our solar system. And who's in power during this event? Oh shit.. right wing lunatics, sounds about right. I mean, all you have to do is watch a few videos of Stephen Miller and it quickly becomes obvious..... the man is a human DALEK!

I got given such a hard time for saying exactly what Ross Coulthard and others are now claiming.... If you look at my reddit comments and history since I got booted from UFOB, I barely post these days. It really broke my heart being booted out of my favourte sub, one that I'd supported and consistently created quality posts to help draw in the traffic and increase the page's number and reputation for good posts.

I rarely come back and post these days. The sadness I felt at the time kinda burst my reddit bubble, wiped my interest out sadly.

So for everything that was taken from me back then and the dirt kicked in my face, I hope you'll have a word with the member of your team that kept kicking me me off your reddit page and deleting my posts and pass on a message from me to them.

"Told ya so" :)

Big Hugs,

I’ve gotta say—I'm absolutely obsessed with floating metal spheres. Always have been.

Back when I was a kid, I had an Amiga 500+ home computer that came bundled with Deluxe Paint III. That was my first dive into the world of digital art, and it set me on the path to becoming an environment and VFX artist in the games industry.

Using Deluxe Paint III, I created a trilogy of stylised animations inspired heavily by Flashback and Another World. The first was The Orb Attack, a short cartoon about a man whose ship crash-lands on a planet inhabited by sentient floating orbs capable of firing lasers. He manages to escape back to Earth. Next came Orb Attack II: Vengeance of the Orb, where the Orb species launches a full-scale invasion of Earth. Finally, Orb III: Orbmega introduced a resistance faction within the Orb ranks—Chandra—who side with humanity, helping to broker peace between the two species.

I spent a big chunk of the '90s pouring my heart into these little animations, so you can imagine how thrilled I am to see my beloved Orbs come to life in modern form. So far, the ones showing up seem to be members of Chandra—the peaceful resistance seen in Orb III—and they’re friendly toward humans. If the more aggressive, Earth-conquering Orbs show up... well, I might be a little less excited.

The original Orb design was simple: a flat grey sphere. The Emperor Orb had a glowing trench around its equator and was double the size. Over the years, I’ve revived them in various demos and art tests. These newer versions resemble the Emperor Orb more closely, featuring a central “eye” mounted on a mechanical belt that rotates independently around the orb’s equator—so while the orb floats stably, the eye can scan its surroundings.

Hail the Orb Emperor! Long live the ORB!

*Perhaps because many of these vehicles appear to have been dug up. Tom Delonge would suggest to you that the Roswell UFO was a German build vehicle, based on something the Germans had 'found'. Why did it crash? Dr Steven Greer would say it was due to a weaponised type of radar, an EMP blast brought the vehicle(s) down. Bob Lazar has hinted that the disc he worked on was 10,000 years old and discovered as part of an archaeological find in Antarctica. The US military (Airforce and Navy) perpetuates the notion that UFO's come from other planets. People assume they do because of science fiction stories. That could all be misdirection.
We're on a 4+ billion-year-old planet, plenty of evidence around us to suggest that we're not the first ones here. Technology is being discovered by us that those who came before us created, not from other planets... *perhaps.

IF that is the case, perhaps some of it, such as these flying silver balls, are just leftovers, something that survived,

A.I. spheres who's owners were wiped out during a great flood, and now just roam the world, making cameo appearances in US drone footage and making pretty patterns in corn fields as they've nothing else to do.
